Are you talking about the syllabus in Santa Clara County v. Southern Pacific Railroad Co., 1886? That was not written by a railway executive, but by a Supreme Court employee.

Mike Andrews wrote "Supreme Court employee", and NOT "supreme court justice". And, the person could have been BOTH a "railway executive", AND a "supreme court employee". Yes, it's a small point, but details DO matter, as does historical accuracy. Especially here, with this topic, IMHO....
